  Research Notes:

The Annales Magdeburgenses name "Dedum comitem et Cuonradum marchionem" as the two sons of "Thiemoni comiti de Witin" and his wife Ida von Northeim. The Genealogica Wettinensis names "Dedonem comitem et Conradum et filiam nomine Machthildem" as the children of "Thiemo comes" & his wife.

Graf von Wettin. Graf von Brehna und Camburg before 1116. Graf von Eilenburg 1123. Lothar von Süpplingenburg Duke of Saxony appointed Konrad as KONRAD Markgraf von Meissen in 1123, challenging the rights of Emperor Heinrich V, who had appointed Wiprecht von Groitsch as Markgraf. “Conradus...marchio...contectalis nostra Lutgardis” donated “Torgaw super ripam fluminis Albæ”, and property donated by “felicis memorie pater meus Timo comes”, to Reinhardsbrunn by charter dated 1119 (presumably misdated, assuming that Konrad’s appointment as Markgraf is correctly dated above).

Markgraf der Ober- und Niederlausitz mit Gau Nisani in 1136. "Conradus…marchio…coniugis nostre…et filiorum nostrorum Ottonis, Heinrici, Theoderici" donated property to Magdeburg Unser Liebe Frau by charter dated [end-May/early Jun] 1142.

Graf von Groitzsch und Rochlitz, Vogt von Kloster Chemnitz 1143. Vogt of Naumburg cathedral. Founder of St Peter auf dem Lauterberg (Petersberg). He abdicated and retired to Kloster Petersberg 30 Nov 1156.

The Annales Erphesfurdenses record the death in 1157 of "Counradus marchio". The Chronicon Montis Serreni records his death "1157 Non Feb" aged 59, specifying his burial "in medio ecclesie, in dextera ipsius uxor eius [et] soror eius Machtildis". 1

  Marriage Information:

Konrad married Luitgard VON ELCHINGEN, daughter of Gf. Adalbert VON ELCHINGEN and Bertrada VON STAUFEN, before 1119. (Luitgard VON ELCHINGEN died on 19 Jun 1145 in Kloster Gerbstedt, Sachsen-Anhalt.)
